Looking for Advice: CZ 600 Trail vs MRA Renegade/Maverick

I’m trying to pick a non-restricted manual-action rifle mainly as a fun range gun, but something that can still handle practical shooting from close range out to about 300 yards. I’d like feedback from anyone who owns either platform.

What I want the rifle for:

  • Fun range use with some practical applications
  • 10 to ~300 yard shooting
  • Common calibers (.223 preferred)
  • Works well with an LPVO
  • Something compact, accurate, and enjoyable to run

Rifles I’m considering:

  • MRA Renegade / Maverick (straight pull): I like the AR-style feel and fast cycling, but I’m unsure about overall user experience.
  • CZ 600 Trail: Compact, AR-mag compatibility in .223, and seems like a solid general-purpose option.

What I’m looking for:
Real-world feedback, pros/cons, and general impressions from owners of either rifle.
